Chapter 220

There were a lot of things Edmund wanted to do to win back Chelsea, but he had to keep a distancebecause she was dating Luka now.

Roy was stunned at first. But the next second, he commented, "Serves you right!"

"Why are you so mean to me, Roy?" Edmund asked, holding his chest.

Pointing at himself, Roy replied, "I'm mean to you? Far from it, Edmund. I'm just defending Chelsea."

Edmund was short of words.

He had nothing to say to that.

It didn't come as a surprise that Roy was on Chelsea's side. After all, she had a calm temperament andgentle face that elicited people's sympathy.

The men went on to discuss other things.

The first one was the alleged stagnation of the film and television industry. They spoke about how theindustry had progressed in the past few years and the challenges that currently weighed it down.

Roy became a scriptwriter when his first novel was adapted into a TV series. He knew about the insand outs of the industry.

Thus, they both had a good conversation.

Even though Roy disliked the way Edmund handled his personal affairs, he admired how insightful hewas in other aspects.

They were so engrossed in their conversation that they forgot the time. Meanwhile, Chelsea was typingaway on the computer in the writing room.

Two hours later, she printed out what she put down and walked out with it.

Roy was held spellbound by the piece. When he was done reading, he looked at her with a smile."Bravo! This is what I'm talking about! You are excellent, Chelsea."

He had a whole lot more praises to shower on Chelsea. Her writing style was very similar to his whenhe was young.

This was one of the reasons why he appreciated her so much.

Chelsea's worry evaporated when she heard his praise. She couldn't help blushing.

Edmund, who was beaming with smiles, suddenly got up from the sofa. "In that case, we will take ourleave now. Let's go on with the arrangement as planned. And you can go to the hospital to see yourwife now." Edmund and Chelsea didn't forget that Roy's wife was still in the hospital.

Roy didn't keep them any longer. "Okay, you can contact my assistant to sign the contract and get thecopyright later."

When they got to the front door, Roy continued, "By the way, I will let everyone in the film and televisionindustry know what those two despicable people did, so they will be wary of them. I don't think anyone

will be willing to work with them after this. Drive safe!"

Roy was very influential in this circle because he was one of the most famous scriptwriters. He knewthat Diane and Gerry would have a hard time getting work in the industry if he exposed them.

However, Diane might replace a way around it due to her father's influence and wealth.

On the way back, Edmund glanced at his watch and asked, "How about we go have lunch?

It was almost noon."

"No, I'm not hungry." Chelsea leaned her head on the window as she looked down at her fingers with asad look on her face.

There was a lump in her throat at this moment. Although she was happy that she passed Roy's test,she was sad about what Diane and Gerry did.

Diane offended her for what seemed like the thousandth time. Chelsea couldn't wrap her head aroundwhy someone could be so shameless and cruel. How dare Diane steal her draft and accuse her ofplagiarism? How low can she go?

Fortunately, Roy was insightful and lenient enough not to have convicted her of plagiarism.

If it weren't for him, Chelsea would have lost the chance to work with him and her reputation wouldhave been ruined.

Edmund could tell why Chelsea was in a bad mood. She was an easy-going woman who was

intentional about her career.

It was an insult that Diane stole her work and still had the audacity to accuse her of plagiarism. Eventhough she had proved her innocence, this didn't stop her from being annoyed.

Edmund was somewhat surprised at himself for understanding his ex-wife so well. Perhaps he wasn'table to do that before because he wasn't in love with her.

But it was different now because he was currently head over heels in love with her.
